Lin Ruiduo kept an eye on it, and asked his disciples to go to Xieyang City in advance: "All the swordsmen who have come in the city in the past few days have been paying more attention, and once they find out their identities, they will report back immediately." ”

The disciple said yes, retreated, and Lin Rui went up to the villa to inspect again, and saw that there was no change, and then went back to another place.

Let's say that when Gu Qingyan got up this day, she felt that the house was a little stuffy, so she changed her clothes, took out a set from the closet and put it on the couch, and asked Su Xinna to bring the clothes to Qingquan Villa to change and let her put them away.

After speaking, he went out of the door, sat down on the swing in the courtyard, dangled his legs, and didn't know what to think, in short, he looked into the distance with his eyes scattered, and when he was tired, he looked down and glanced at his hand, and saw that his fingertips were either molting because of the change of seasons, and he couldn't help but want to tear them.

Suddenly, I felt that someone was coming, but I still put down my hand, and in the blink of an eye, I saw that Beiming had come to the front to ask for peace: "Master." ”

Gu Qingyan stopped the swing, still sitting on it, and spoke in a lazy tone: "What's the matter?" ”

Beiming said: "King Yu has come back and sent someone to spread the word, saying that there is something important to discuss with the master, and he must meet before talking." ”

Gu Qingyan closed her eyes and slowly raised her eyes, retracted her senses, and said, "Big brother, do you know?" ”

"Before the Ming Valley Lord, King Yu sent Fengxi to come."

Fengxi was the secret guard beside King Yu who went out of the stone gate, although Gu Qingyan didn't know what path King Yu was taking now, he only thought to himself: "Call him to see me first." ”

"Yes."

Beiming was discharged from the hospital, Fengxi was waiting outside the hospital, and when he saw Beiming coming out and asked him to go in, he followed the pace and went in, and when he saw Gu Qingyan, he saluted first: "See the master." ”

Fengxi naturally changed his words, but Gu Qingyan said: "You have been a person of King Yu for a long time, so you don't need to call me Shimen again." ”

Gu Qingyan didn't want them to change at any time because of their different identities, and they were tired of everything.

Feng Xi was silent, and then changed his words: "Four girls." ”

"That's it, get up."

Gu Qingyan let Fengxi get up, if I remember correctly, Fengxi is still the second batch of people to go out after she took over Shimen, and it has been some years, some time ago in the Shimen trial, Gu Qingyan didn't bother to take a good look at them. I only asked about the situation from Beiming, and I knew that they were all fine.

"I already know that King Yu is going to meet, but where is King Yu now? When and where would you like to meet? Is it okay to see me or someone else? If you say it, Beiming will take you back to the valley lord in a while. ”

"Yes, the prince returned to the mansion two days ago, and heard that the fourth girl was going to Qingquan Villa on the fifteenth, so he wanted to invite the fourth girl to meet at the teahouse in Xieyang City at a moment on the sixteenth, as for whether he saw the fourth girl, the prince did not explain."

The time and place were also very detailed, and it was too detailed to make Gu Qingyan's expression move slightly, and he returned to his previous idle appearance just after Fengxi's voice fell.

"Got it, Beiming, take Fengxi to return to the eldest brother, and come according to the eldest brother's wishes."

After saying that, the two of them bowed and retreated, Gu Qingyan rubbed his temples and said softly: "Su Xin, is there something wrong?" ”

Su Xin packed up her clothes and was about to ask Gu Qingyan which mask she needed to bring on this trip, but as soon as she walked to the door and saw Beiming talking to Gu Qingyan with someone, Su Xin quietly went back to the room.

I didn't think that Gu Qingyan would find out, but this time when she heard Gu Qingyan call her, Su Xin came out with a mask: "The slave picked a few light ones, and the master will see which one to bring?" ”

Gu Qingyan's fingers twisted lightly, swiped through the veil bead curtains one by one, and finally landed on the silver moire mask, and retreated.

Since Chinese New Year's Eve a few days ago, Gu Qingyan rarely wears a mask in the valley, and she doesn't go out of the yard much in the valley, and she hasn't even been to Shimen after returning from a trip to Yuhualou; Second, Gu Qingyan stroked his cheek, and the scar hidden under the green silk fell into the palm of his hand.

After sitting outside for a while, her pure heart courtyard is not like other courtyards, a bunch of people are busy going back and forth, she has few things to do, and there are not many people, except for the maids and guards who are usually taken care of, there are no idle people, so no one is dangling in front of her when she sits outside.

After a while, Beiming came back alone, Gu Qingyan asked Xu Shaolin what he said, Beiming said: "The valley lord said that it doesn't hurt to go even if he has something to do, it just so happens that the valley lord also has something to discuss with the prince, so let Fengxi go back and talk back." ”

Gu Qingyan said "oh" and said nothing, the two were silent for a few seconds at the same time, Gu Qingyan said first: "You also noticed it?" ”

"Yes, the master's decision to go to Qingquan Villa on the fifteenth was decided in Jinmen, at that time..."

"At that time, there were no people around King Yu, and when I came back, the only people who knew the news were people from the valley."

"My subordinates will check it out immediately."

"Go, if it's okay in the valley, watch the stone gate carefully." Gu Qingyan said solemnly, "Besides, let Fufeng come to see me." ”

Beiming went to Shimen without saying a word, first asked Dongsheng to find Fufeng, and then gathered twelve ghost guards to give an order, Shimen was easy to live in a few days, and then started a secret investigation at this moment.

Gu Qingyan sat a little cold outside, went to the study, picked up the book of poems and looked at it first, and instructed Su Xin to wait for Fufeng to come and let Fufeng come to the study to see her.

After a while, Su Xin came into the study with Fufeng: "Master." ”

"Get up, how is the stone house doing?"

Fu Feng said: "The old ghost is still as usual, conditioning the Gu worms. ”

Gu Qingyan nodded, there was nothing unusual Gu Qingyan knew, after all, the old ghost would still send some collected venom or powder out for Gu Qingyan to use as usual, and Gu Qingyan also sent his blood to the stone house according to the established time. Everything looks like it's business as usual.

"Also, the old ghost said, in another seven days, this Gu worm will be counted, let the subordinates ask the master on their behalf, but do you want to let the Gu worm enter the body?"

Fufeng said be careful, after all, this is not like an ordinary drug test, and the risk is even worse, so Fufeng is worried about Gu Qingyan.

Gu Qingyan didn't think about this problem, but it was the first time for him, so he was not a little sure in his heart, but he didn't dare to make a decision on his own, thinking that he would ask Zong Yue about his physical condition first, and let a few people sit down together one day to discuss it.

So he waved his hand at Fufeng and said, "Don't be in a hurry first, take the knife." "Count the days, and it's time to take blood today.

Fufeng took out a dagger from his cuff and handed it to Gu Qingyan, Gu Qingyan swiped it between them, Fufeng took the small jade bottle, dripped blood into it, Su Xin took a cloth and ointment, and smeared Gu Qingyan, the mouth was not big, and the bleeding was almost stopped.

"Although the stone house is located in the stone gate, after all, there are wild mountains and forests behind it, and there are few things in and out, and I can see it."

I don't know what it is, Gu Qingyan's first reaction after Fengxi's words pointed to the stone house, but after thinking about it, she couldn't find any evidence that could prove her intuition, so she could only remind Fufeng first.

After explaining a few words, let Fufeng go down, seeing that it was almost noon, Shen Sanniang's small kitchen prepared lunch, Gu Qingyan was fine, so Su Xin asked people to come up and set the meal first.

Zong Yue went back to Baicaotang that day, how did he think that Master Qianhuayu's expression was not quite right, but he didn't feel the pulse, and he didn't dare to make a conclusion, and on this day, he took a trip to the other garden by sending Yun Luan a medicinal food recipe.

Xing Ming muttered beside him: "There are still most of the people who understand medical skills in the Hengzhi Garden, make sure that your master is fine, and you don't have to worry too much, it's just that the winter and spring alternated a few days ago, and the body was a little tired." ”

Even though Zong Yue was suspicious, Xing Ming and Yun Luan cooperated with you to say a word, and sent Zong Yue away in a daze, and when he saw that the people were gone, the discussion over there also stopped.

Xing Ming hurriedly stepped forward to help Qianhuayu: "Are you okay?" ”

Qianhuayu shook her head: "It's okay." "At most, their tricks are just looking at the show, and they haven't really made any moves, but now that their bodies have not passed the head, they have been unstable for a few months, which is inevitably worrying.

Gu Ning said: "Fortunately, you two didn't let him pay too much attention to us when you talked." ”

Zong Yue's mind is not as good as Gu Qingyan and Xu Shaolin, these two are sensitive and quick to react, and the other is delicate and shrewd, if these two people come instead, I am afraid that the suspicion will not disappear and may rise.

This episode passed, Zong Yue returned to Baicaotang, and Nan Ke had a letter saying that he had picked up Yiyi on the way back.

It was afternoon when Gu Qingyan came, and when he entered Baicaotang, he was still made by the smell of medicine and rubbed his nose first, and the people in the courtyard told Gu Qingyan: "The second master is in the medicine house." Gu Qingyan went straight to the medicine house.

The little boy in front of the medicine house saw someone coming, opened the curtain and went inside to report: "Second master, the fourth girl is here." ”

Zong Yue was busy looking for medicinal materials in the medical book, and he didn't know what recipe to study, so he said "um", the little boy went out, opened the curtain and let Gu Qingyan go inside.

"The people here are ruddy and flexible." Gu Qingyan said and walked in with a smile.

"That's right, so you haven't taken the medicinal food obediently." Zong Yue didn't look up, just lowered his head and continued to study him, but still answered Gu Qingyan.

Gu Qingyan heard that the word medicinal food was big, and hurriedly shook his head: "Don't, the taste of your Baicaotang is enough for me to choke, don't mention let me eat it." ”

Gu Qingyan found a place to sit down by herself, Zong Yue found medicinal herbs, and was stacking them on the table, holding a small scale and weighing the number of catties and two coins, and the two of them were speechless for a while.

Waiting for Zong Yue to wrap a pack of medicine first, he called the boy outside the door, took the medicine bag out to decoct the medicine, and gave a few words of precautions, then turned his head and took care of Gu Qingyan: "If you have nothing to do, go to the Three Treasures Palace, let's talk." ”

Gu Qingyan was fine, and she was also playing with the herbs, and when she heard Zong Yue ask her when she was idle, Gu Qingyan skimmed the herbs, patted the residue on her hands, and handed the finger that had been cut by taking blood in the morning to Zong Yue: "Huh." ”

Zong Yue glanced at Gu Qingyan, this girl made herself come to the trick, although she showed disgust on her face, she still skillfully held Gu Qingyan's wrist and looked at the wound for her.

There was a bandage on the wound, obviously it had also been medicated, and the wound was not deep, so it was not a big deal, so he simply looked at the wound and gave Gu Qingyan a pulse first.

"Feeling weak lately?" Zong Yue asked.

Gu Qingyan nodded: "It is estimated that the season is changing, the valley is damp, it is okay to get up early, but I feel panicked at noon." ”

"Are you taking all the pills I gave you?" Zong Yue knew that the decoction tasted bitter and the taste was strong, and Gu Qingyan would not touch it unless she had to, so she specially made a pill for her to take when she was usually unwell.

Speaking of pills, Gu Qingyan couldn't help frowning, no matter how medicine it is, it can't be eaten as sugar, and besides, who is idle and has nothing to do to take medicine, so it is really not good to take such a pill when he thinks about it.

"Eat occasionally, there's a lot left." Gu Qingyan said truthfully.

Zong Yue raised his hand and flicked it at Gu Qingyan's head, Gu Qingyan, who was in pain, rubbed his head, tears rolled in his eyes, and listened to Zong Yue say in his ear: "Don't think about how good your body bones are, don't take medicine, don't run to me if you feel uncomfortable." ”

After saying that, Zong Yue ignored Gu Qingyan angrily, and continued to flip through his medical book, Gu Qingyan came here to ask about her body, how could she let Zong Yue be so cold to her, so she took out her housekeeping skills.

Little by little, he approached Zong Yue: "Second brother." ”

Zong Yue turned around and ignored it.

"Handsome and dashing second brother." Trotted to one side and continued.

Zong Yue left his seat, still ignoring it.

Gu Qingyan stepped forward, grabbed Zong Yue's sleeve, and shook it and still called "good second brother" a few times.

Zong Yue was finally annoyed, let her sit down together, and said: "You are a disease of dampness and heat, you are already weak and hot, the pills given to you by Su Ri are to replenish qi and blood, and to clear heat and recuperate, you are not at ease, what is the matter now?" ”

Gu Qingyan grinned and said, "Second brother also knows that I handed over that Gu worm to the old ghost to raise on my behalf, and now it's going to be soon...."

Gu Qingyan didn't finish his words, because Zong Yue's face had already darkened, and he forced Gu Qingyan's words back into his stomach: "Are you really going to do that?" ”

The worried words came into Gu Qingyan's ears, and his heart tightened, but he didn't know how to speak, did he plan it? She doesn't know much about herself, but now if someone stops her, I'm afraid there will be no result.

Zong Yue looked at Gu Qingyan, who bowed his head and was silent, and sighed: "In the past, you refined poison, and you also tried poison with yourself, every time it is a loss, you don't know, now your body is also like what I just said, there is no serious illness, and the foundation is okay..."

After all, there is a certain amount of bearing, there is no outlet for this, but Zong Yue and Gu Qingyan also know it.

After this conversation, no one disturbed for a few seconds, and after a long time, Gu Qingyan raised his head, and Zong Yue saw the squinting and smiling face in front of him.

The skin was congealed, her cheeks were flushed with the fluctuations of her inner emotions just now, the faint scars were embellished by the depicted Huadian appearance, the tassels falling from the hairpin between her hair swayed gently in the air because of the movement of her tilted head, and the sound of small beads colliding softly was heard very clearly.

"No matter what, the second brother will not let Hades take you away from us." Zong Yue looked at Gu Qingyan fixedly, and the firmness in his eyes made Gu Qingyan feel at ease for a while.

"But what is going on, you have to let the eldest and third know it." Zong Yue patted Gu Qingyan's hand, and when he saw Gu Qingyan nodding, he was relieved.

When Gu Qingyan went back, Zong Yue gave Gu Qingyan a small bottle of Stable Heart Pill, and asked her not to forget to take pills, saying that Gu Qingyan had returned to the Pure Heart Courtyard, and Zong Yue's chattering voice was still in her ears.
